History buffs and lovers of great architecture alike will truly enjoy a visit to the Ramsey House Plantation. The two-story Georgian-style home has the distinction of being the first stone house built in this region. The home was built for Colonel Francis Alexander Ramsey and his residence became the center of social, political and religious life in Knoxville at the turn of the 19th century. Visitors will marvel at the 18th century architectural design and vintage furnishings that adorn the house. There are also gardens and a museum on site as well.

The Ewing Gallery, located on the campus of the University of Tennessee, is an impressive venue that features over 3,000 square feet of exhibition space and 300 running feet of wall space that are all perfectly utilized to present some memorable works of art. Contemporary artists and architects have their creations on display, and the permanent collection features various styles rendered in different media. The one thing these pieces all have in common is that they are as captivating as they are thought-provoking. This is a must-see for any art-lover.
